F# G Single room in the cheap part of town F# G And the elevator's broken down C So I walk up the stairs No-one cares about the rent when you're paying as little as me Dirty dishes and a stain on my shirt I eat alone and I'm out of work So tell me what did you think I'm the same, haven't changed Just been going by a different name Em B/D# D A7 What a waste, now I'm coming back to say Chorus: G G7/F Em7 I'm no big shot, big town, big money, hop in my jet, C flying all around the country G G7/F Sometimes when the weather's right, Em7 C I sail out to the ocean, staying overnight G G7/F Well, I went from broke since the last time we spoke Em7 C Now I'm coming back here to say, Cm F# G everything is going my way I grab the bus from the damp hotel I grab things and I'm ready to sell That I'll want out of time All the things that I loved All the memories that use to be mine They're gone, yeah, I've thrown them away They're gone, and I'm going to mess up today Will you ask another day? What a waste, now I'm coming back to say Chorus: I'm no big shot, big town, big money Off to buy a jet, fly it all around the country Sometimes when the weathers right I sail it to the ocean stay overnight 'Cause I went for broke Since the last time we spoke Now I'm coming back here to say Everything is going my way Well, everything is going my way Big shot, big town, big money Off to buy a jet, fly it all around the country Sometimes when the weathers right I sail it to the ocean stay overnight 'Cause I went for broke Since the last time we spoke Now I'm coming back here to say Everything... Everything is going my way!!
